98 more days to go!


Since I'm in the 26th week today, I figured I should actually do a pregnancy post that didn't involve purchases.   I had the fabulous 1hr glucose tolerance test this morning.  Thank God I was able to eat something for breakfast (a salad, actually-they said not to eat anything sugary and my breakfasts usually consists of sugar).  Baby Harrison loves food and wants me to eat constantly.  The thought of having to fast before hand was just not acceptable. :)  I was told that no news is good news so I'm praying that I do not receive a phone call from the Dr.

So far everything is going amazingly well.  I've only gained 13.5 lbs (why they had to put that .5 lb in I don't know).  I still have ankles.  I am sleeping rather well despite the need to go to the bathroom 3-5 times every night.  Most importantly our little boy is perfectly healthy!  The ultrasound we had the beginning of July showed him and his environment to be perfectly healthy and normal-thank you Lord!

Andrew and I will get to see our little man's face on Sept 10 when we go to a prenatal imaging center for a 3D/4D ultrasound.  We are so looking forward to that!  He has been moving around so much more and is kicking/punching a lot.  I jokingly say he's going to be our little soccer player, but I bet his daddy wouldn't mind him getting into MMA (mixed martial arts).  He's growing so fast-this pregnancy is going by equally fast.

I'll try to do these sort of updates weekly from now on.  It'll be a great thing to look back on. :)

I know I'm a dork and comment on these all the time, but I'm very excited! Besides, it's easier to just respond here instead of doing email number 510 for the day! :)
I already hear most of this from you, but it's fun to read. Plus, you're right, it will be fun to have all of this as a little journal for the future! Let me know if you hear anything from the doctor!
